I don't get it why people always expect a old vehicle that breaks down to always be covered under some warranty?

If your exhaust tip is larger than your cylinder bore, then you are a Ricer.

What did you do with your old 4 bolt wheels? I would be interested in buying them if you still have them.

oh, they're just sitting there collecting dust along with the rear end waiting for a good home to go to.
I did sell the straight 6 and 3 speed transmission


the two rear wheels have almost brand new tires on them, the front tires are crap.
Ill take some good pics of the wheels and tires this weekend, its noted you have first choice

Peps,
Anything special about the rear end? Or is it just stock?

the rear end is just stock. nothing fancy at all.


here are a few more pics so you get the idea of what that "tired Ol' 302" is going to look like. still fussin over the P/S pump bracket. I may lose the mechanical fuel pump and use that space for the pump.





and yes, thoses are the orriginal Granada exhaust manifolds, but they fit in so tight, i am going to use them instead of hugger headers.

Details, please. I know the stock centerlink won't clear the oil pan but I've never heard anyone say what you have about the starter.
Where the tie rod connected to the center link it was bending through where the starter was. I was using the stock steering and then someone told me to get v8 steering. I got the steering yesterday and am now stuck trying to get the pitman arm off.
